That hill assist thing was the first thing I turned off as soon as I got home from the dealer. The second was the seat belt chime.

Don't worry, mine is currently. Not hating, it's just preference.

I have a manual and my wife drives it whenever she wants...

It would be sweet if she didn't know how to work the manual but the only person that keeps clear is my daughter...

My wife was so mad I bought the jeep she didn't even look at it for a month. So with her being so mad I added fuel to the fire and ordered the wheels tires and lift. I figured since she was already mad at me I would get it over and not have to ask her later if I could order it. After she rode in it she was happy until she saw it was manual. Just tell your wife they were sold out of automatics. That's what I told mine!!!

First, ask for your man card back, grab your balls, then order what you want. If she has her own car what does it matter what you are driving!

I taught my wife to drive a stick when we were dating. We went to a car lot and test drove a used corolla (very easy clutch), drove to an empty parking lot, put her behind the wheel and turned her loose! An hour later we returned to the car lot, thanking the salesman and went on our way. No way I was going to burn up my clutch teaching her!
